Fereydunshahr

Shemshak

A few flights there.
Runs are shorts and the lifts are quite slow… But the terrain is nice, the staff super chill and the wind mostly blowing to the right direction!

Darbandsar

After 2 NINJA flights and further talks, I finally had an authorization to fly… about 10 runs.Darbandsar is the best resort in Iran for Speed-Riding: 900m vertical drop, steep, several lines and a Star Wars mode landing area. Main issue is the West exposure with down wind (in March).

Anywhere else

Tips before Speed Riding in Iran

Before flying, try to ask permission. Unless you are in the middle of nowhere, be sure that people understand what you are doing…Ski resorts are likely to refuse access for responsibility reasons. They don’t want you to get injured and don’t want to be sued.
